The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:31:14 at Mechelen 2026 put Robert den Hartog 992nd of 1,363 men in the Open division.
The runs carried this race: faster than 43% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 18% on the stations. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 2:37. A harder second half: 1:55 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Amsterdam 2026 were 2:24 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
